09 children's clothing market trends

The children's clothing scene from a few years back started hinting at brand trends, and today, the competition among kids' clothing brands has grown fiercer than ever. The children's clothing industry has seen steady improvement and is maturing over time. Local original brands and foreign labels alike are evolving, with CHIC serving as a kind of "barometer," reflecting the shifting patterns within the children's wear sector. In 2009, the children's clothing section at CHIC gathered over 70 exhibiting brands across 7,000 square meters, featuring most of China’s top ten children’s wear brands alongside several dynamic market players. Products ranging from infant items to various children’s clothing-related industries were showcased, aiming to capture market share at different levels. “This is a testament to the value of CHIC as a business platform for children’s clothing and reflects confidence in the industry's future,” said a CHIC children's clothing area manager in an interview. Reports indicate that this year’s CHIC children’s wear exhibition showcases four key traits: First, prominent Chinese brands like Parkland Emperor, Barra Barra, DADIDA, Strength Fruit, Dr. Rana, Red Yellow Blue, and Tong Wang continue to expand their presence, reinforcing China’s children’s wear brand image while exploring domestic and international markets. Attendees will witness these brands’ latest collections and gain insights into the current state and strength of China’s children’s wear industry. Second, standout brands such as Offside, Water Boy, and Bubu Beans have made strategic appearances at CHIC2009. Third, alongside children’s wear, companies like Montagut and Angel Shoes have capitalized on the CHIC platform to seek collaboration opportunities. Fourth, licensed characters like HELLO KITTY and Miffy have also joined in. The children’s wear industry in China has entered a pivotal phase, with consumer demands becoming increasingly diverse. Brand differentiation and branding strategies are driving the industry toward new heights, expanding market potential. The global financial crisis of 2008 accelerated consolidation within the children’s wear sector, providing opportunities for quality-focused, innovative, and well-managed enterprises. CHIC2009 serves as a beacon of confidence for the children’s wear industry, conveying optimism both internally and externally. As Vice Chairman Chung noted, “While crises challenge enterprises, they also offer turning points for reshaping competitive landscapes. The children’s wear industry is poised for further escalation.” Offside, despite the challenging economic climate, maintained an impressive 80% growth rate in 2008. Their strategic improvements in product design, brand influence, and channel expansion have bolstered their overall competitiveness. For 2009, Offside introduced new children’s shoe lines and polyanthranilic collections, enriching their product offerings. At CHIC2009, they aim to highlight their versatility as a one-stop shopping destination. DADIDA’s Marketing Director, Ruan Shitao, echoed similar sentiments: “A crisis is an opportunity.” DADIDA’s long-term strategy aims to become China’s premier children’s clothing brand within 3-5 years. They are redefining their terminal model as a “Children’s Living Museum,” showcasing everything from newborn essentials to adolescent needs at CHIC2009. This approach underscores their commitment to comprehensive branding and customer engagement. Industry veteran Lin Weijian of Force Fruit reiterated the importance of leveraging CHIC as a global platform to integrate domestic and international resources. With over 200 square meters of booth space this year, Force Fruit, along with its sub-brands Fruit Beibei and Anm Side, aims to solidify its leadership position. “Participating in CHIC allows us to connect with industry leaders, attract valuable partnerships, and demonstrate our brand strength and vision,” said Patrick Lyndon, director/vice president. International brands are equally invested in CHIC. Disney, which debuted in China in 2005, has steadily expanded its presence, increasing its participating brands from a handful to over a dozen. Disney plans to extend its retail footprint to 45 cities in China over the next five years, underscoring its dedication to the Chinese market. Similarly, South Korean brands like Dacheng and Miffy are actively exploring the Chinese market through CHIC. Brands like Maui are using the platform to better understand and eventually penetrate the vast Chinese market. In 2009, the children’s wear industry faces both opportunities and challenges. It’s a year of convergence, transformation, and evolution. The trends shaping the future of children’s wear will be vividly illustrated at CHIC.
